Detailed Product Description

NZ, 1999, 1st edition. 248 pp. This novel is set in Taranaki, during and immediately after World War II. Elizabeth, the eldest child in a busy family, is desperately afraid her mother may die of tuberculosis, for which, at the time, there was no cure. In between trying to look after her father and the younger children, Elizabeth tries to fill her life with horses.

Passionate, wilful, proudly hiding her fears, she follows her heart, not her head, and makes wrong decisions at school, as well as out riding. The author has taken much of the plot from her life, including the setting, the obsession with horses, and her own mother�s illness�which was thankfully nipped in the bud, by the discovery of streptomycin. A realistic exuberantly written novel, with good insights into NZ attitudes and family relationships of the 1940s. New paperback.
